INTRODUCTION. 



This little book, with its accompanying map, constructed in a 
novel manner, is absolutely essential to ever}'^ visitor to the city of 
Washington, and of k^reat interest and value to every resident. 
By its aid a vast amount of useful information can be obtained in 
the simplest and readiest manner. With ordinary guide books 
and maps it is more trouble to find a given place on the map than 
it is on t]\e ground. But with the graduated tape attached to the 
map, and the corresponding numbers to be found in the body of the 
book, all sorts of places can be instantly located by a total stranger 
to the city of Washington. For example: It is desired to find 
^SlcPherson iSquare. Finding the name in the alphabetically 
arranged guide, you will also see two columns of numbers, marked 
respectively M. and T. The first refers to the number on the 
margin of the map, the other to the number on the tape. In case 
of ^IcPherson Square, the numbers are M 105, T 13. To find the 
square desired, place the tape on No. 105 in margin, and under No. 
13 on the tape, and you will find McPherson Square. In this 
same way you can locate instantly all points of interest in and 
about Washington, leading business houses, car routes, hotels, 
theatres, prominent public buildings, &c., and the direction from 
the Capitol of places within a radius of twenty miles. The tape 
reaches only ten miles. For instance, Alexandria, M 55, T 48. It 
locates Alexandria outside the map, and the tape indicates six 
miles. Bull Run, M 74, indicates the direction, twenty-six miles 
the distance. Several roads leading in that direction is also found 
on the list. 



b INTRODUCTION. 

The tape is divided into numbered sections, each of whic 
represents 6G0 feet, one-eighlh of a mile, and it is also divided int 
miles and parts thereof. To find the distance between two point 
lay the tape along the route desired to be measured, and read th 
result, as you would in measuring anything with an ordinary tap< 
line or rule. 

When the street system is once understood, Washington is th 
easiest city in the country for a stranger to find his way abou 
Tbe coloring of the map shows the four quarters. *' Nortl 
east," "Northwest," "Southeast" and "Southwest." These tern: 
are appended to the names of all the streets, so that the quarter 
at once indicated; for example, 14th street N. E., 14th street N.W 
etc. (These subdivisions are formed north and south, east or we^ 
by the Capitol streets extended.) Streets running nortii an' 
south are numbered in two series east and west from North an 
South Capitol streets. Those running east and west are indicate 
by two series of the letters of the alphabet, beginning from the lir 
of East Capitol street extended. These strtets are generally 
right angles. The avenues, named after the States, radiate in var 
ous directions, generally from the Executive Mansion or tL 
Capitol. 

The houses are numbered decimally, one hundred to each square 
for example 600 9th street N. W. must be at the corner of " 
street N. W.," F being letter No. 6 ot the alphabet, and 1100 Ma 
sachusetts avenue N. W., N. E or S. E. must also nccersaril}^ be 5 
the corner of 11th street N.W.,N. E. or S. E., as the case may be. 
• By means of the street railways and the numerous herdics ac 
cabs transportation is rendered cheap and rapid. The lines of tl 
street railroads are laid down on the map.
